'Amber Lee's Chinatown' shares memories of the food she grew up with as a San Francisco native. Here's an extended look at our culinary tour in images. Be sure to watch segment 1 of our AAPIHeritageMonth series Friday at 10PM!
Located at 1416 Powell Street, this Chinese restaurant is slightly off the beaten path for Chinatown. They are known for their innovative take on some traditional dishes. We went for dim sum and toured this very busy kitchen. This is a family-owned business with brother-sister duo, Tiffany and Leon Zhou, in charge as the managers and owners. Their father is the chef. His signature baked pork bao, a creation they started making in 2008, is incredibly delicious.
Fun fact: The literal translation is dim=bit and sum=heart. Think of it as a piece of my heart. Or the chef's heart as the case may be.Try the fresh seafood at Lai Hong Lounge, San Francisco Chinatown. April 17, 2023.Lai Hong Lounge prides itself on the freshness of its seafood. Here's a glimpse at how one of their black cod fish dishes is made from the beginning to the final product.
Fun fact: When Amber Lee was a young girl, she would have an allergic reaction to eating shrimp. The seafood would irritate her eyes and they would swell up. Her grandfather, whom she loved very much, would not stand for this. He said she could not be allergic to shrimp since this was such a staple of the Chinese diet. "Keep eating it," he'd tell her. Amber says that and traditional medicine worked.

Leon Zhou made sure to get us some extra baked pork buns, since we enjoyed them so much. He also told one of our crew members that we had to try their version of Peking duck. Yes, the skin was crispy. Underneath the skin, texture wise, it almost felt like eating a spare rib. The pan-fried turnip cake, made with house-made XO sauce, also packed a flavorful punch and was cooked to perfection. It is made with dried shrimp and scallops.
